about me

Hello and thanks for visiting! My name is Stephanie and I love to explore our beautiful planet.  My favorite travel partners are my two adult sons.  I’ve always enjoyed traveling but in the past was not able to travel as much as I would have liked, due to work and my boys’ athletics schedules.  We did take a few family vacations (my husband does not enjoy traveling anywhere near as much as I do), but once the boys went off to college, my world opened up (& then closed again, due to COVID 19).

 I started this website to chronicle my adventures for myself, as well as family and friends who always ask me about my trips upon return. I consider myself in the middle of the road between being a budget friendly traveler and a luxury traveler.  Food and lodging options (as long as they are clean) are not as important to me as experiences.  I will splurge when it comes to experiences!  We generally stock up on supplies for breakfast and picnic lunches.  Dinners are usually eaten out, or we will cook simple meals if we are staying in lodging with a kitchen.  Location of lodging is much more important to me than amenities. 

 I hope you enjoy the site and that some of the information may help you if you are planning a trip in the future.
